CAIR Says Poster Warning Against Helping FBI is Misinterpreted

By Todd Starnes

The Council on American-Islamic Relations said it will remove a poster from the group's website promoting an upcoming conference that encourages people not to talk to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

The poster, which appeared on the website of CAIR’s California chapter, features a sinister-looking FBI agent with the headlines “Build a Wall of Resistance” and “Don’t Talk to the FBI.” The poster was designed in the late 1970s or early 1980s and has been reproduced by various groups and activists since then in response to alleged harassment by the FBI and to protest grand jury subpoenas.

“I think it’s subject to misinterpretation,” spokesman Ibrahim Hooper told Fox News Radio when speaking about the poster. “We decided out of extreme caution to take it down.”

But haven’t you heard? The Muslims have a saying: “It’s OK to lie to an Infidel!”

Liberals would believe them.

BTW, did Bill Ayers ghost write that book for them? Looks like his style of work.

From 2009: In Tampa, Mayor Pam Iorio announced that she was breaking a pattern of designating "CAIR Day" in the city, as she had done since 2005. The decision followed protests from activist Joe Kaufman at Americans Against Hate, but Iorio insisted the decision resulted from her own research.

More significantly, dozens of people in Minneapolis protested outside a CAIR ice cream social for discouraging local Somalis from cooperating with the FBI. The protesters were friends and family of a local teenager believed to have been killed by terrorists in Somalia.

The FBI used to think these folks at CAIR were a resource until Kaufman pointed out to them how the FBI was being used as cover for a sinister organization.

Support Rep. Peter King’s investigation of Muslims in America and their connection with Islamofascism. It is an important one to see how many real moderate patriotic Muslims really do connect with our values instead of sharia - jihadist ones.

This looks like a poster that one of the Communist Party fronts or off-shoot creations (CCR) would have made in their “No Cooperation” programs re the FBI.

The various CPUSA fronts and groups that would have been involved in this program were:
* National Lawyers Guild (NLG) - cited by Congress as the “legal bulwark of the CPUSA”
* National Emergency Civil Liberties Committee (Union) - NECLC - NECLU, another key CPUSA legal front composed of many CP law professors and supporters
* Committee for Public Justice - CPJ - founded by old Red Party member Lillian Hellman with help from the ACLU
* ACLU - their FBI Surveillance Program at Yale led by CPUSA security operative Frank Donner
* Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) - formed by the Party and its supporters out of the NLG. Today the largest marxist lawyers group in the country with ties to Cuba, Venezuela, etc.
* Grand Jury Project - a NLG operation that aimed at getting people to stop cooperating with sitting grand juries which were investigating leftwing terrorism
* Organizing Committee for the Fifth Estate (OC5) - a combined organization of radical Vietnam Veterans, a few CPUSA members/supporters, leftist ex-CIA and FBI agents, and some very strange ex-military types. Originally funded, in part, by author/marxist Norman Mailer (who was drunk so often that he couldn’t function in the group).
*OC5 became part of marxist ex-CIA turncoat Philip Agee’s network “CounterSpy” magazine; “Covert Action Information Bulletin” CAIB, with a lot of NLG involvement, ARDIS, etc.

Nice to see that CAIR is using marxist materials to influence American Muslims. I say that this deserves a congressional investigation re the confluence of marxism with radical Islam and their interconnected operations.

Obama and his advisors, staff, etc. have had political contacts with CAIR and other radical Moslem groups who pose as representatives of the Moslems in America (nobody elected them).

This goes back as far as PLO official Edward Said (Columbia University and the Palestine National Council, the political arm of the terrorist PLO), plus others in the Chicago area.

It would make an interesting investigation but they would be johnny-come-latelies to the list of Communist Party members and supporters who show up in Obama’s life literally since he was born.

There are some whose backgrounds would make a great story but the mainstream media has totally failed to even look into these people though they were present at a press conference at which this information was presented (Wash. Post).

Now you know what we are up against, and that is why the cable networks like Fox and the radio talk shows are so valuable - like Glenn Beck, Mark Levin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and even Michael Savage. That is why Obama’s communist-influenced FCC (i.e. Free Press reds) is out to silence them.

If there is any government agency that needs an internal security probe and hearing immediately, it is the FCC. More dangerous than marxist wacko Van Jones, George Soro’s environmental buttboy today.

Of course they didn’t mean for it to be interpreted that muslims shouldn’t cooperate with the FBI. I’m sure this has nothing to do with sharia. /sarc

Isn’t this applicable to the current debate re being civil?

OK. I guess it’s all right then. Go ahead. Tell the FBI everything you know.
